Engraved Hanging Metal Tags
Hanging metal tags drilled for a chain, ring, or hook. Built for valves, keys, and equipment access points.
Description
Some tags need to hang free rather than sit flush against a surface. Think of a valve handle, a key ring, or a length of chain. A hanging metal tag is drilled or punched for that, then engraved with the text the job calls for.
Where it fits
- Valve tags hung on a chain next to the handle
- Key and part identification hung from a ring
- Warning tags hung near equipment access points
- Spare-part tags hung alongside a machine
Common sizes
A 35mm round or 40x20mm rectangle covers most hanging tags. A larger 75x20mm strip suits longer instructions. Hole position and diameter follow your drawing.
Materials & finishes
Stainless resists rust where a tag hangs outdoors or near moisture. Aluminum keeps a hanging tag light on thin chain or wire. Brushed or natural finish is standard, and edges are smoothed so the tag is comfortable to handle by hand.
Typical applications

| Utility meter rooms | Tag hung on a wire loop from gas or water meters to identify which unit each meter serves. |
